Yuck. Lets hypotphetically say we fix this for xcsoars volkslogger driver / validation eninge. What will happen if someone for example uploads a real 2005 IGC file to skylines? (which uses xcsoar's validation procedure) Is the rollover issue clearly identifiable as such, or are just fixing the date? - Folken
